The vario PYRO cube ? perfectly adapts to your analytical demands for high temperature EA-IRMS analysis. With our blank-free pyrolysis reactor and our patented backush technology, you no longer have to worry about distortion of your analytical results through interfering gases. Use the vario PYRO cube in combination with one of our high performance IRMS systems and enjoy highest accuracy and precision in both OH and CNS isotope ratio analysis, unmatched ease of operation, and great durability. PYROLYSIS Oxygen isotope ratio analysis relies on the conversion of sample oxygen to carbon monoxide following the temperature- dependent Boudouard equilibrium, which favors the formation of carbon monoxide over carbon dioxide with increasing tem- perature during pyrolysis. Therefore a full conversion of sample oxygen to carbon monoxide requires furnace temperatures in excess of 1400?°C. The vario PYRO cube is a designated EA-IRMS interface analyzer for highly precise and matrix-independent hydrogen and oxygen isotope ratio measure- ment via high temperature pyrolysis at 1450?°C. ADVANCED PURGE AND TRAP (APT) Elementar’s proprietary APT technology is a unique high performance chromatographic technique for the determination of non- metal elements. The fractionation-free APT technology is capable of resolving e.?g. C?/?N ratios of up to 7000 : 1 and C?/?S ratios of up to 5000 : 1. The distinct peak separation assures absolutely reliable and trouble-free data acquisition. The data analysis can therefore be easily automated for larger sample amounts while maintaining highest possible data quality. Elementar’s unique APT columns are optimized to provide unmatched robustness and longevity compared to GC columns. Furthermore, they can be loaded up to 250-fold higher, resul- ting in outstanding sample flexibility. Thus, customers enjoy industry-leading accuracy, sensitivity and versatility. Analysis of ? 18O of a nitrogen containing organic substance (caffeine) without (left) and with (right) patented backflush technology. Reliable results Oxygen isotope ratio measurement of nitrogen-containing samples poses challenges. The vario PYRO cube uses a patented back?ush system to remove background bleed of the pyrolysis reactor from the CO peak. This results in complete baseline separation of the N 2 from the CO peak and superior CO peak focussing. The distortion of analytical results through interfering gases from the pyrolysis reactor is no longer a problem. Operating comfort The vario PYRO cube stands for unmatched user-friend- liness. The instrument is designed for safe unattended overnight measurements. During operation all sample positions are accessible and reloadable at any position and time. The feature-rich software and a high level of automatization guarantees ease of use for all users. Great (exibility The vario PYRO cube can be operated in OH or in CNS mode – giving you the all-in-one instrument solution for EA-IRMS analysis of C, N, S, O and H. In addition, Elementar?s APT separation technology of the analysis gases results in a large dynamic measurement range – samples from the low microgram up to the two-digit milligram range can be analyzed. Extreme durability The vario PYRO cube is characterized by a low consump- tion of consumables. The pyrolysis reactor can be used for several thousand samples. This reduces maintenance e?ort and increases the system uptime. In combination with a low carrier gas consumption, low operating costs are guaranteed.
